No flu vaccines?
An incredibly stupid Hegseth order
Those who fail to study history:
1812-Napoleon's retreat from Russia
"As many as 220,000 may have died solely from disease"
Patel:
“I need to hold a press conference with Pete after he’s been on an epic bender”

At least there was some narrative in going into the Vietnam even if was a bullshit narrative. Iran is all bullshit with no narrative.
"We didn't start this fight, but I'm saying to Virginia, we need to finish it." Quote from VA Del. Delores McQuinn
Virginians: Today's the last day to vote on an important redistricting measure.
I hope you'll vote YES—for Virginia, and for the entire country.
You have a chance to help level the playing field as Republicans seek an unfair advantage in Congress. Please take it. Get more info: IWillVote.com/VA
@peterbakernyt.bsky.social why is Swalwell even in the art accompanying your story? Why aren’t you talking about how Blanco should be disqualified for his ballot seizing shenanigans and how Hilton is just another soulless MAGA hack.
Crucial from @davidsirota.com: If Dems win House, they must use power of the purse to stop Trump. Dems can't fear the politics of defunding. Trump is weak and this is an opening to reassert "congressional authority in a real way."
On the pod David explains this well:

Of course they are concentration camps. And @anatosaurus.bsky.social is right that once you accept the euphemism you are halfway to normalizing the thing.
Yes, it seems the more you reply to something the more it appears in your thread. It may seem trivial but but FB algorithm has tons of pro Hagar posts because I bash him and side with Roth as the better VH singer. Also get tons of Springsteen posts because I reply to a lot of the anti Boss posts.
Opposed to the usual fucking D-listers running for the GOP.
Pathetic it takes a war for most of this country to decide Trump is nuts. Trump has been nuts for a while. Not even sure what the issue with Biden was there. I’d take him or even Reagan and all the baggage He brought in a heartbeat over any of the any of the Trump years.
The Iranian government’s depiction of LEGO Kash Patel is lit.
April 20, 1975: Lots going on in this clip of Sam Lacey scoring for Kansas City-Omaha in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semis in Chicago.
—Very visible hockey boards/glass
—Jerry Sloan and Rick Adelman in uniform
—Shot clock on the floor
—Jerry West calling the game for CBS
Kash Patel tries to save his job by emulating Trump in every way.
Spend more time targeting perceived enemies than doing your job.
Criticize the media for doing theirs.
And, when in doubt — try to cash in.
The Tech Journalist Banned from Twitter for Criticizing Fascism, Palantir, & the Broligarchy
Palantir published a 22-part manifesto outlining its authoritarian agenda. The masks are off. It's time to purge America of these broligarchs.

Allegedly tRump tried to grab the nuclear codes in a White House meltdown—only for the Joint Chiefs chairman to stand up and say “No.” Apparently, even the military knows this unhinged man is too dangerous for the football. How much longer can America risk it?

Just wanted to point out that Kash Patel is suing the Atlantic for the same amount that Devin Nunes tried to sue @devincow.bsky.social and myself, $250 million.
A new art exhibit in Phoenix features some of the world's prickliest plants. It could also help save them.
yo, John Roberts: wanna keep using the shadow docket?
Maybe Congress should de-fund your law clerks and require more work from the 9 of you and cut your pay since you no longer need briefs, legal research, oral arguments or deliberation to decide cases.

Screenshot of a tweet by NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman (@astro_reid) describing filming an "Earthset" from space, comparing it to watching a sunset at the beach from "the most foreign seat in the cosmos." He notes he captured a cell phone video while fellow astronaut Christina Koch (@Astro_Christina) used a Nikon with a 400mm lens for professional shots, with Vic Glover (@AstroVicGlover) and Jeremy Hansen (@Astro_Jeremy) watching from window 3.
Continuation of Reid Wiseman's tweet, describing how he used an iPhone with 8x zoom to capture Earth rising over the Moon's surface through the docking hatch window, noting the view is uncropped and uncut and comparable to what the human eye would see. The image shows Earth as a small bright crescent peeking over the dark, cratered lunar surface against the blackness of space.
The most amazing video ever taken on an iPhone.
We can’t believe Gavin Newscum did this
16 years ago, Republicans gerrymandered Virginia, taking 8 out of 11 seats in the House of Representatives.
Tomorrow, Virginia voters will have the chance to combat Trump's gerrymandering efforts by voting YES on the referendum.
Why is Blanco allowed to stay in the California governor’s race?
